. . . Planning Commission Minutes April 22, 2003 Page 7 Commissioner Franz asked if Mr. Murray would be willing to abide by a time limit to have the storage building constructed, as a condition of approval. Mr. Murray stated that he would be agreeable to such a condition. Commissioner Lemke suggested a 12 - 24 month time limit. Discussion followed regarding screening of the truck. Commissioner Offerman asked if it would be possible to park the truck farther back on the property. Mr. Murray stated that it would not be a problem. Commissioner Lemke stated that if the truck were parked back furthe~, it would be screened even less, since the existing house and garage provides some screenmg now. Commissioner Jenson stated that he could not support a request to park a commercial vehicle in a residential neighborhood. Commissioner Anderson stated that he felt there are issues to be addressed such as noise and glare, but that if the vehicle were screened or stored in a garage, the request could be acceptable. He stated that if the applicant were given a time line, any problems that have arisen could be addressed then. Commissioner Lemke stated that he concurred with Commissioner Anderson. He asked if requiring some type of temporary fencing would be appropriate. Commissioner Franz stated that he would not be in favor of adding additional expenses, since completion of the storage building is a financial issue for the applicant.
